Go Akiko! I actually think her IN and CH scores should surpass everyone (including the top 3 in the world) but I know that will never happen.

This! Her musicality is wonderful and she looks light as a feather on ice

The lacy costume doesn't go with the powerful music cut. She is a beautiful skater, one of my favorites

My feed froze during Gao's performance. I hope she did well.

Christina's program should not gain more PCS than Lacoste

This is exactly why Czisny with one Triple Lutz and two Triple Toeloops still has a chance for the Olympic team. Very boring 5-triple program from Christina Gao. Courtney Hicks can do 7 Triples but it doesn't matter, the rest of the skating is abysmal.

What is going on with IN's feed from Canada. The freezing is ridiculous!

Akiko is the class of the field by far on every PCS category--easily should be a full point + above the nearest lady in most categories. Beautiful skate, though not perfect. I would not be sorry if she took the gold here.

She managed to do the impossible---make me like POTO.

Akiko is so musical, but her POTO program isn't anything special. Her Cirque du Soleil LP last season (and her SP this season) was miles better.

Akiko's program is lovely. I think her strongest point is her edging - great lean, wonderful stroking.

Aside for the flip, Akiko was amazing!

I would not be sorry if Akiko took the gold every time, everywhere

Akiko is a class of her own. I wish her kind of artistry was rewarded more in PCS. Just wonderful!

Akiko's musical arrangement of Phantom of the Opera is the best I ever heard. That was special.

This program for Akiko is beautiful but it's not outstanding.
There is something about the choreography that miss the special effect that we have see in her «O» program last season

Agreed! Did you see her choreographer gesturing that she had made the hair stand up on his arms while she skated?
